Aminopropylsilatrane (AP-silatrane) was investigated as an adhesive layer for anchoring Au nanoparticles on silicon substrates. We compared the preparation procedure and film quality of the AP-silatrane films to those of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), which is commonly used for nanoparticle attachment on

Calcium, as a ubiquitous second messenger, governs a large array of cellular processes and is necessary for cell survival. More recently, it was observed that the cytosolic Ca
Caspase-1 drives a lytic inflammatory cell death named pyroptosis by cleaving the pore-forming cell death executor gasdermin-D (GSDMD). Gsdmd deficiency, however, only delays cell lysis, indicating that caspase-1 controls alternative cell death pathways. Here, we show that in the absence

The molecular target and mechanism by which d-limonene induces LC3 lipidation and autophagosome formation remain elusive. Here, we report that this monoterpene rapidly enhances Ca2+ levels in SH-SY5Y cells; yet this effect does not lead to calpain- or caspase-mediated proteolysis

Resistance to anoikis and growth in anchorage-independent conditions are hallmarks of highly metastatic cancer cells. Anoikis is a type of apoptosis induced by inadequate cell/extracellular matrix (ECM) attachment and an attractive anti-cancer therapeutic strategy in cancer chemotherapeutic field. Therefore, the
